    Did he go around asking “Are you my mummy?”

    (I doubt any of the insurrectionists are Doctor Who fans.)

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    WASHINGTON — The man who federal authorities say set off a brutal battle with police at the lower west tunnel of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 was arrested Friday, nearly two years after he was identified by online sleuths.

    Video footage shows Mijares was the first rioter to enter the Capitol through the lower west terrace doors on Jan. 6, 2021.

    Several police officers sustained major injuries, and rioter Rosanne Boyland died amid the chaos.

    A FBI affidavit states Mijares told the bureau he rented a car in Indiana, drove to D.C. with a friend, and stayed at an Airbnb in Virginia.

    Online sleuths were able to identify Mijares with the help of a photo posted by a journalist that shows him posing near the Capitol after the attack when he was not wearing his mask.

    “The Department of Justice’s resolve to hold accountable those who committed crimes on January 6, 2021, has not, and will not, wane,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a statement this week.

    I missed that guy the first time around. Would’ve made the day feel even more like a fever dream.
